QAR and Synthesis

My group and I were making a synthesis and a QAR.

First we did did synthesis. Synthesis has a prior knowledge, new information, and new understanding. 

Prior knowledge is that they already know about the title. New information is that you don't know what is in the text. New understandings is if you agree or don't agree.

Last we did a QAR. QAR has four boxes right here, think and search, author and you, and on my own. There are ten questions that you have to answer.

Smart Media

I learnt about currency and relevance.

Currency is when it was made and was updated. Relevance is if the text about things tells a lot of information. The texts are moon facts, how to shot put, and tree animals.

How to shot put was June 14 2018. Moon facts was August 6th 2021. Tree animals was created in 1998-3-8 and updated 2020-2-7.

How to shot put kinda teachs me. Moon facts teachs me a lot. Tree animals doesn't teach me anything.

Different Opinion

I was learning opinions and other people had different opinions.


First we looked at a picture of an animal. When I looked at the animal and thought what it looked like. In my opinion I saw a rabbit but other people could see a duck.


Then I was looking at the legs of an elephant. In my opinion there were 5 legs and it was trying to trick us. There are 5 completed legs and one fake leg.


I enjoyed this task and learning optical illusions.
